Cabin Disco Fever

Over the weekend, while doing some research for one of the two book projects I'm working on, I read Noel's A.V. Clubfeature, "From Asylums To Zombies: In Search Of A New Horror Classic." Noel highly recommended The Last House in the Woods, an Italian film that I initially rolled my eyes at simply because of its title. I mean, come on, we already have two Last House of the Left's. Can we try to have a slightly different name, especially one that doesn't share part of it with one of the most memorable horror flicks of all time?

Nevertheless, I thought about possible names of other horror flicks I would probably scoff at simply because of their name:

The Last House Party on the LeftFriday the 13th FloorReturn of the Living Dead AliveNear Dark FloorsBlue Steel TrapThe Vanishing Point BreakCabin Disco Fever

I know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, but what about a movie based on its title? I shall ponder that.
